I see image line have their plugins on sale but is fl studio ever on sale anywhere? If so when do they have sales and how good are the sales?
Thanks

Without a time machine you might be out of luck.

Honestly, who would have thought it but I do have a time machine so it is my lucky day. When was it on sale?

They had a sale last year as well (30% off):

mmm but this year only the plugins for the EOY Sale. I may wait until January and see if they bring in another sale before I buy it. The exchange rate is not so good for me at the moment, 30% would definitely be helpful. Maybe I can find a retailer discounting it

Their sales model seems to be support for warez kiddies, who will eventually buy it or get a friend to buy it. Lifetime free updates, and a good support system. Also, like it or hate it, it's updated regularly. Also, they don't allow transfers "legally" so their money is their money.

It's a different business model to virtually any other host. I don't count the pseudo cakewalk thing.

So for all my rambling, you end up with a very distinct "good luck on that" for a discount.

I bought FL Studio Producer 50 percent off I believe In 2014. It was on sale the first week of January. I added Harmor and some other items from Image Line in 2015 again for 50 percent off. Love the lifetime free upgrades!

mmm - I think I will wait then for January and hopefully it goes on sale or the US dollar collapses. Either way I'm happy

Depending on where you're from it might not be worth buying from them due to shipping costs or customs, though, but maybe you can find a similar price at a dealer in your country.

thanks - I had seen that Thomann offer and have emailed them to see if they do a download version - hell they can open it up and email a photo of the serial if they want. Postage is 50Euro !

But I will take that deal if I can get it without the postage

This was some years ago, but I had bought a boxed version and I think I remember having to pay money ($25?) to "activate" lifetime updates.

It could be a false memory or no longer the case but I would look into it just in case.

Edit: I noticed I used the word "case" twice in a sentence-- whenever I do that I hear Austin Powers saying,"Please allow myself to introduce...myself."

Is fl studio ever on sale?
